Zhuge Liang wrote in the book of precepts: "be quiet to cultivate one's morality, and be frugal to cultivate one's morality." He broke the truth that thrift is a virtue. Thrift is the precious spiritual wealth of the Chinese nation. Anyone who has made outstanding achievements is frugal in life. So we should also be frugal.

Throughout the ages, many people have done well in frugality.

"Half chalk remember special treasure, public things to cherish forever. All the students don't understand Yu Zhongqu, but think that Yu is a good person. " This is Xu Teli's chalk poem. He is a proletarian revolutionary and educator, paying attention to moral cultivation and living a simple life. This poem was written when he was the principal of Hunan No.1 Women's Normal School. At that time, when he visited the school every day, he would always pick up the chalk discarded by others and put it in his pocket for his own class. Hardly used new chalk. Some students don't understand and feel too stingy, so Xu Teli writes poems to educate students. Xu Teli not only thrives on himself, but also educates the next generation to learn from him.

In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there was a great official named Wu Yinzhi. He lost his father when he was a child and struggled with his mother. He has developed the habit of frugality and simplicity. He was tired of luxury life and refused to enter the prepared government. He only lived in a thatched cottage for many years. Later, when his daughter got married, people thought he would take good care of her. But on the big day, the Wu family is still deserted. It turned out that Wu Yinzhi sent a servant to the market early in the morning to sell dogs. Even the servants say that Lord Wu is a rare official. This is the story of "selling dogs to marry women". Even the ancient officials were frugal. Why not?

Diligence and thrift are the fine traditions and virtues of our Chinese nation, and extravagance and waste are despised by people. However, some students in some schools waste food seriously, and some students even fight with steamed bread. Everyone can blurt out, "Who knows that every meal is hard?" However, why can't the students think of the scene of "weeding at noon and sweating on the ground" when they fight? As the saying goes: "wear a wisp, when thinking about the merits of the weaver girl;" Every time I eat three meals, I miss the sufferings of farmers. " While we are diligent, we also respect the fruits of other people's labor.

"Diligence has been a good name since ancient times, and thrift is still a good name." Now, if everyone only knows waste and doesn't know thrift, we will destroy our traditional virtues. On the contrary, if we strive to practice frugality and maintain family frugality, our country and people will become richer faster, and the virtues will be passed down, so that frugality will remain in our hearts forever.
